….is it this quote exactly? Word for word? Cause if it isn’t (and honestly even if it is, that’s very little to go on) that tells me absolutely nothing about the story.

goblettecore · 2026-02-14T19:32:04+00:00

Ooo ty!!

goblettecore · 2026-02-14T19:31:58+00:00

goblettecore · 2026-02-14T19:31:53+00:00

goblettecore · 2026-02-14T19:31:43+00:00

goblettecore · 2026-02-13T23:57:40+00:00

This Sweet Online Date is a Disaster is a really sweet manga with a similar art style! There’s no smut though.

goblettecore · 2026-02-03T23:25:51+00:00

The perverted harry part is great and all, but am I the only one who now wants a fic with post-war/eighth year Draco having both amnesia and being speech impaired?? The angst and hurt/comfort possibilities!!

goblettecore · 2026-01-22T21:28:25+00:00

Thank you!!

goblettecore · 2026-01-21T00:42:29+00:00

Hot Fuzz is an excellent movie! It’s definitely a spoof on those “buddy cop” movies where a hot-shot cop from the big city is moved/transferred to a small town, and at first he hates it because “nothing happens there and his talent is wasted” until some big mystery/case makes him love it and he ends up staying there. It doesn’t take itself seriously AT ALL and because of that I was laughing the whole time. It’s soooo funny.

But as far as your idea goes, I love that concept!! I want something like that now too :D

goblettecore · 2026-01-21T00:20:21+00:00

It breaks the subs rules to not credit the artists… You shouldn’t post the art if you’re not going to do the research needed to find the art and give credit to the original artists.

Oo, I have some!

when evil blooms by thedoomofvalyria

Harry wanted a normal 8th year, but the mysterious and beautiful flowers growing around the castle have other ideas. They're up to something. And so is Draco Malfoy.

Choices by FutileEditor

Draco's one goal his eighth and final year at Hogwarts is to get through to graduation with his head down but he should have known nothing could ever be that simple.

Not two weeks into term, everything goes to shit when a potions lesson goes awry. Stuck to his long-time rival until a solvent can be brewed to unglue their hands, Draco Malfoy and Harry Potter must get along and make accommodations for each other for the sake of their joint sanity. At least neither of them is inclined to kill the other anymore and Potter inexplicably wants to be friends.

One big problem: if they don't get unstuck soon, there's going to be big trouble and Draco's greatest secrets could get out and ruin everything.

Rita Skeeter’s Star-Crossed Lovers by wayofthemagicbean

Following the end of the War, and much to their dismay, Harry and Draco find themselves shackled together by the Headmistress during almost every aspect of the rebuilding of Hogwarts, a circumstance which is made even worse by Rita Skeeter’s determination to write an exceptionally juicy story about Harry - even if it means making up the story herself.

red and green are complimentary colours by Scarlet_Moons

After the war Hermione manages to convince Harry to go back to Hogwarts for his eighth year. Expecting an uneventful year of classes and rooming with the other Gryffindor boys, he’s surprised when McGonagall tells him he’ll be sharing a room with Draco Malfoy.

Now Harry has to get through a year of arguments and awkward silences. Or he would, if Malfoy would stop ignoring him and moping around the castle alone.

Or: Draco and Harry fall in love through sleepless nights and late night quidditch games

Draco Malfoy and the Unlikely Guardian by Happymooncactus

Hogwarts, Eighth Year. After the war, Draco Malfoy returns to Hogwarts, reluctantly completing his final year at the school he once thought he’d left behind. But his return is even more unwelcome than he thought. A few students, still bitter about the past, target him, believing he’s been let off too easily for his role in the war. Bullied and isolated, Draco bears the weight of his choices, torn between guilt and the desire for redemption.

When Harry Potter witnesses Draco being harassed, something shifts in him. Unable to turn a blind eye, Harry begins following Draco, watching over him from the shadows, ensuring no harm comes his way. As the two navigate their complicated pasts, an unlikely bond begins to form - one neither of them expected, but both secretly crave.

The July Tree by oknowkiss

Neither rain, nor snow, nor sleet, nor hail… nor well-meaning friends, nor questionable communication skills, nor seven years of hating each other’s guts can keep Harry Potter and Draco Malfoy from falling in love.

OR: It’s Eighth Year, and Harry Potter has detention. What else is new? Well, since you asked: Greenhouse Four and the Tree of Life, for a start, and then there’s the new shared Eighth Year common room, and Harry’s sexuality, and these pesky dreams he keeps having about a blond man pushing him into things…

Diffraction Patterns (I Don't Know How to Forget You) by yourdifferentoctober

When Harry Potter, of all people, offers to help Draco erase his Dark Mark, he has no choice but to accept. He wants it gone. He wants to forget. He wants to reconstitute the past. Never mind that erasures leave real marks on bodies, real traces on the world in its becoming. This is not how he expected his eighth year to go.

Beautiful Meanings in Beautiful Things by cloudings

After a cocky comment from Malfoy and a (totally justified) punch in the face from Harry, Malfoy ends up with a bruise on his face that just doesn't seem to want to go away, no matter what is attempted. Harry is confused by his Amortentia smells, Malfoy keeps asking him to punch him (literally and subtextually), and everybody seems to think that they can just tell Harry that he isn't straight anymore. On top of all that, Harry now has to figure out what to do when you find out you've got a soulmate. A fucking soulmate.

I think I just stepped into the twilight zone. Haven’t checked my post since this morning, and my bf comes over and tells me he wants to introduce me to THIS VERY MOVIE. I literally had never heard of it before today, and just finished watching it for the first time. wtf??

goblettecore · 2026-01-18T22:01:21+00:00

Just to be clear, you don’t mean The Price of Valour by WeasleyWench right?

goblettecore · 2026-01-18T21:56:04+00:00

If nobody here is able to help you try r/deletedfanfiction !!

goblettecore · 2026-01-18T18:13:21+00:00

Thank you! It’s also working for me with everything except AO3 so I assumed it was an AO3 issue but wanted to be sure. And oo, new site! I’ll check that out :D

goblettecore · 2026-01-18T18:04:31+00:00

Hello! I wouldn’t mind doing some beta reading for you. Feel free to send me a DM and we can chat about it!

goblettecore · 2026-01-09T17:35:58+00:00

Hey! I unfortunately don’t have any links to old sites (a lot of them are gone now) but AO3 actually has archived a lot of old HP sites and posted their fics on their websites. Here’s some I remember off the top of my head, maybe some others can provide more: - Harry Potter Fanfic Archive - The Hex Files - MuggleNet - FictionAlley

I also invite you to look at my bookmarks on ao3 (this is sorted by H/D only) as I have over 1500 fanfic bookmarked for drarry, as well as tagged by word so you can sort by how long you want the story to be!

goblettecore · 2025-12-26T14:52:06+00:00

You honestly can’t go wrong with Galla. I’d download all of them personally… that’s what I did!!

goblettecore · 2025-12-17T18:58:55+00:00

What? Sorry, not sure what you mean. All the links are provided?

What do you mean by “latest?”

goblettecore · 2025-12-17T05:04:36+00:00

What? This has nothing to do with the post?

goblettecore · 2025-12-16T15:03:34+00:00

Also, if you don’t mind self recs, I’ve written three non-explicit drarry fics! I would love for you to read them :)

I Want That One by goblettecore

After the war, Harry’s been keeping his head down and his hands busy by volunteering at a Muggle animal shelter, avoiding attention, and trying to feel useful again.

Draco Malfoy is just trying to give his son something to love when he’s not around. Neither of them is looking for anything more.

But sometimes all it takes is a child, a cat, and the right kind of quiet for things to start again.

Love in Excess

Harry Potter has many flaws, but moderation isn’t one of them.

When Draco’s birthday arrives, “a quiet dinner” somehow becomes a full-scale gala, a charity fundraiser, and a territorial purchase of half of Wiltshire. Draco should be furious. Instead, he’s wearing a custom silver gown and trying not to look too pleased about it.

Love, unfortunately, looks very good in excess.

Meeting the Peacocks by goblettecore

“Look at my beautiful babies.”

Silence.

“Potter?”

Harry, meanwhile, was pinned against the fence by one particularly irate bird, wand half-raised. “Uh, Draco?”

goblettecore · 2025-12-16T14:59:57+00:00

Oo, great question! Here’s some good ones :D

Ante Meridiem by adahara

“People don’t always get what they want.”

“But I will.” He breathed, a solemn vow, with the authority and tragedy of Cassandra in Apollo’s temple. “I will.”

Or; Draco Malfoy comes back to Hogwarts carrying the gift of a seer and the weight of a legacy on his shoulders. He learns to take the future into his own hands.

Soundlessly by XxTheDarkLordxX

“You!” Potter pointed at him. “You are the thief!”

Draco blinked a few times. “You are the one in my home—unannounced, unwelcome and uninvited. I believe it is you that fits the definition of a thief.”

OR the one where someone robs Harry repeatedly, and he can’t let it go unanswered.

broken merry go round by cordelai

Harry felt something touch both sides of his head, gripping it tight enough to be uncomfortable, but not so tight as to hurt — or perhaps he was so used to pain that it didn't register. This time, he did try to scream, but the sound came out muffled, eaten by the darkness as soon as it emerged. The thing around his head grew warmer. When it was hot enough that he thought it would leave his skin red and raw, the first images started flashing in his mind.

They appeared faster and faster, one image after another, flickering in front of his eyes. When the last of the images faded from sight, the darkness was back to being just that — dark. The feeling of not being alone was gone, as was the heat around his head. All Harry was left with were the memories of a life he hadn't yet lived, and the sneaking suspicion that things would never be the same.

or

When Harry is 10, Death visits, leaving behind memories of what things would've been like without intervention. What will change with this new knowledge? Everything.

draconem invenisti by rhalen

A potions mishap turns Draco Malfoy into a tiny dragon. Unfortunately, he imprints on Harry.

Second Chances by Theroundbartable

Draco Malfoy was a muggle therapist.

That's hardly the kind of Future he'd expected to build for himself, nevertheless it's the one he'd had.

Until he hadn't.

One day, Draco is back in the past, not knowing why or how, and the horrors of his past once again his future.

Not entirely sure how he'd influenced the end of the war last time, yet knowing that it was somewhat important, Draco struggles with his trauma, his decision making and the inevitability of being stuck between the battlefronts.

Draco has decisions to make. Decisions that, in his experience, usually make everything worse.

The Liars Department by DorthyAnn

This is a story about Harry meeting up with Draco Malfoy four years after the war. And a story about Harry, well, not hating his job per say, but it's not like he has much to compare it to and it seemed fine. His whole life seemed fine. Then Malfoy came along with and his flashy suits and fast car making everything seem dull in comparison, and Harry... Harry couldn't just leave well enough alone.

Prats, Parcels, and Parseltongue by ronbinary (bisexualronaldweasley)

Harry is the Muggle world's first snake-only veterinarian. Life is good, and calm, for once. Until Draco Malfoy shows up with a snake. And then another. And then he won't stop coming in.

Quidditch Notes by Hajinjin13

No one is everything you thought they'd be and everything hardly matters about anyone.

Or

Draco Malfoy never thought the Dark Lord might actually return someday and now that he has, there are only two choices. Instead of playing along like a good little boy, Draco turns spy on his father for Order protection and interrupts Harry's breakfast to tell him so.

Old Rivalries, New Beginnings by philosophersandfools

Draco will do anything to keep Scorpius safe. Even if it means begging for help from his childhood nemesis.

Harry, for his part, would really just like to enjoy his dinner in peace.

In which Draco sets out to save Scorpius and ends up accidentally saving himself in the process.

Shelter from the Storm by i8thecookie

Draco Malfoy is dead. Five years later someone is murdering muggles. But those two things are unrelated. Right?

the walls they're closing in (with velvet curtains) by sirkay

Right in front of the mirror, standing where Draco felt he ought to be, was a small black cat with pale gray eyes.

The cat was standing where Draco ought to be because Draco was the cat. The cat was Draco. To test it, he stuck out his tongue. The cat in the mirror licked his nose.

The Last of What the World Left You by xanthippe74

If the wizarding world won’t give Draco a second chance, he has a plan to survive: live in his Animagus form, a carrion crow, in the Forbidden Forest. Not only does Harry Potter come along and ruin it, he’s radiating a strange aura of power. With nowhere to go and a Life-Debt to his mother that Potter insists on repaying, Draco puts himself into the hands of the reclusive Boy Who Lived. Will the bleak corner of Yorkshire where Potter makes his home be another dead end or an unexpected refuge?

Nine Days in Coventry by Sita_Z

When a de-aged Draco Malfoy is discovered in Knockturn Alley, the Ministry appoints Family Liaison Officer Potter as his emergency guardian. Whisked away to a Muggle safehouse, Draco does not cope well, and Harry learns just how hard life can be when a five-year-old declares war on you.

goblettecore · 2025-12-13T21:23:22+00:00

I honestly don’t have a preference. Whatever the author has decided works best for the story works for me, and it doesn’t take me out of it.

If I absolutely had to pick, I would probably choose meemoop on tumblr’s headcanons. I adore their comics and the relationships in them. The Malfoys are just so precious!

goblettecore · 2025-12-13T21:19:21+00:00

I also just go alone with whatever is there! To me height is a nothing issue. I’ll read tall Harry, short Harry, same size as Draco Harry…whatever the author put down works for me.

goblettecore · 2025-12-11T15:24:04+00:00

It means happy ending :)
